Smarthistory.org is a free award-winning multimedia web-book designed as a dynamic enhancement (or even substitute) for the traditional art history textbook. We are interested in delivering the narratives of art history using the read-write web's interactivity and capacity for authoring and remixing. Publishers are adding multimedia to their textbooks, but unfortunately they are doing so in proprietary, password-protected adjunct websites. These are weak because they maintain an old model of closed and protected content, eliminating Web 2.0 possibilities for the open collaboration and open communities that our students now use and expect. In Smarthistory, we have aimed for reliable content and a delivery model that is entertaining and occasionally even playful.

Stanford's website is a repository for the ongoing study and exploration of the fragmentary remains of the Forma Urbis Romae, also known as the Severan Marble Plan of Rome. This was an enormous map of Rome made between 203-211 A.D. and covered an entire wall inside the Temple of Peace in Rome. It depicted the groundplan of every architectural feature in the ancient city, from large public monuments to small shops, rooms, and even staircases. Most of the Forma has been lost and the site contains drawings of the map made when more pieces were extant and photos of the extant fragments.

This site, which notes that it is not a "rigourous academic site," tries to bring to life the peoples, cultures, adventures and domination that made the British empire such a powerful institution. Its creator, a British teacher, explains that "it is neither an apology for, nor a nostalgic reminiscince of the institution that so dominated the world for over a century. Rather, it analyses and describes the vast institution that so influenced the shape of the world that we see today."

This site is part of a BBC internet series called the History Trail: How to do History. The object of the site is to lead students in the footsteps of professional historians and find out how they do history by working with primary sources. Here they have to discover and follow clues in an old hand-written Council Book to determine what led a 17th century British country priest to abandon his family in England for life in the American colonies. The key question they must answer is: "Was he a priest swimming against the religious tide or a philanderer escaping the consequences of his actions?"

According to Textbook Revolution, "This site is actually the equivalent to three books on different areas of European History (see author’s description below). The material appears to be complete and reasonably well-written, and there are plenty of extras—lots and lots of links, an entertaining collection of quotes called <a href=״http://www.historyguide.org/history.html״>What is History?</a>, and more.While the content may be good, the navigation is lacking a little. To get from one lecture (equivalent to a chapter) to the next, you have to go back to the table of contents then select the next one. There’s also no search feature or index, although each book does have a pretty thorough site map separate from the table of contents.Navigation aside, there’s no reason these books couldn’t be used in a classroom, and in fact the author has used all of them in his own classes for more than a decade. Enjoy!From the home page: The History Guide has been created for the high school and undergraduate student who is either taking classes in history, or who intends to major in history in college. The purpose of The History Guide is to better prepare yourself for your history classes and to make your time in class more enjoyable and proficient.The History Guide contains the complete content of three undergraduate courses in European history which will certainly be of use to those of you studying such topics at the college level or in A.P. European history classes. The History Guide contains ninety lectures in European history from ancient Sumer to the fall of Soviet-style communism in 1989. In essence, what is presented here is an online textbook in western civilization, with special reference to the western intellectual tradition.״
